Image by David Bailey & Rankin, available here. Their work is gorgeous and expensive. You can get prints here; you can buy his book here. There’s a lot of tasteful-nasty-sexy to see on photographerslimitededitions.com (via High on Sex). I’m excited to discover Rankin, too.

Pun-a-licious: Yes, the Cybernet Expo is coming to SF
Image by elaisted. And I’m speaking in this Cybernet Expo 2009 convention. I’ll be talking about writing. And stuff. I’ll be around making media and probably getting in arguments, as usual because I’m not from “the industry”. There’s a good writeup in the Guardian’s Sex SF blog about it, with a cute pic of a…
A visit to the sex therapist
Can it be any more uncomfortable — or funny? I am sure this is what it is really like. More from my pal Liam in Dr. Ulee, Sex Therapist.
This week’s Chron column: Bill Killed
Image via bangbang. I saw [typo fixed] the autopsy photos and the pic of him hanging in the closet. So this week I wrote Bill Killed – Violet Blue: The passing of David Carradine and the controversy of risk-aware kink. It’s very much about the death of David Carradine, and as opposed to all the…
Skeet! It’s Kelly from the ‘hood in “No Booty Calls”
Make your day and *do not miss* this hilarious video! Many know and love Kelly (my pal, Liam and his rad wife), and Kelly’s got a hilarious new music video up: No Booty Calls. I love the “I’m a graphic designer for a shoe company…” line that makes her swoon. Oh, Zappos. How you continue…
New study – still not all that and a bag of chips: Women, porn and violence
Image by FML Photography. So, Katherine Broendel begins her post with all the stuff she left out in Effects of Pornography on Perceptions of Women & Sexual Violence (such as the exclusion of sexual violence against men/LGBT communities, which is actually pretty significant for the conversation) and that’s a good way of making the methodology…
And from old media: The sound of silence
Image taken by dotBen and instantly uploaded to Flickr with my Nokia N95 8GB. Sent this email after seeing this front page article online and in print Sunday, especially after what happened with my column last week: Hi Joe [Garofoli], Just wanted to say that I enjoyed your piece on George Tiller and Bill O’Reilly,…
Speaking of photo IP theft: In praise of photo piracy
Images by Merkley???. Image by Cari Ann Wayman. So, we’ve been pretty unsuccessful in tracking down the image in my previous post, which is both disappointing (I want to get the artist proper credit and see more of their work) but is also a very interesting real-world thought experiment. How exactly do you do the…
Rope marks
Tumblr annoys and infuriates me to extremes. Like, I love this image above — but who the hell is the photographer, and how can I right the wrong of seeing their gorgeous image (and pretty model) hit a couple Tumblr blogs (like this one) with no attribution whatsoever? I mean, besides the fact that Tumblr…
It’s a nice day for a… Space wedding
In case you missed it on the Telegraph, Space or a couple other media outlets, a very cute and nerdy space-obsessed New York based couple are set to have the first-ever wedding in zero gravity. Of course, they’re blogging the whole experience as they go along, and the couple is having custom-made couture for the…
